Description
La présente invention est relative à une gaine pour pistolet, et a pour but de réaliser une gaine hors de laquelle le pistolet peut être enlevé par son porteur, le représentant de l'ordre, d'une manière aisée et rapide.The present invention relates to a gun sheath, and aims to achieve a sheath out of which the gun can be removed by its holder, the representative of the order, in an easy and quick manner.
On sait qu'un révolver a une action directe sans sûreté, mais il a un inconvénient car il ne peut admettre que six balles.We know that a revolver has a direct action without safety, but it has a disadvantage because it can only admit six bullets.
Par contre, un pistolet peut admettre un plus grand chargement de balles dans son chargeur, il est plus plat que le révolver, plus léger et plus facile à manipuler. Cependant, le pistolet, si on engage une balle dans le canon, doit avoir son cran de sûreté placé, d'où un inconvénient pour un tir rapide puis-qu'il faut d'abord enlever cette sûreté avant de pouvoir tirer et dans le cas d'un danger imminent, vu l'émotion que celui-ci procure, cela n'est pas du tout évident.On the other hand, a pistol can accept a larger load of bullets in its magazine, it is flatter than the revolver, lighter and easier to handle. However, the pistol, if one engages a bullet in the barrel, must have its safety notch placed, from where a disadvantage for a rapid shooting since it is necessary to remove this safety first before being able to fire and in the in the event of an imminent danger, given the emotion it provides, this is not at all obvious.
Le document US-A-2 001 321 décrit une gaine pour revolver, constituée d'un étui qui est muni à sa partie superieure de l'ouverture courante pour l'introduction du revolver, qui présente une partie avant ouverte permettant le dégainement du pistolet ver l'avant ainsi qu'une pince pour maintenir le revolver
On connaît par le document US-A-3.630.420 une gaine de révolver présentant une partie avant ouverte permettant le dégainement du révolver par l'avant, après libération d'une courroie de sécurité. Cette gaine est pourvue d'une armature flexible.Document US-A-2 001 321 describes a sheath for a revolver, consisting of a case which is provided at its upper part with the current opening for the introduction of the revolver, which has an open front part allowing the draw of the pistol to the front as well as pliers to hold the revolver
Document US-A-3,630,420 discloses a revolver sheath having an open front part allowing draw the revolver from the front, after release of a safety strap. This sheath is provided with a flexible frame.
Par le document US-A-2.893.615 on connaît une gaine de pistolet constituée d'un étui muni à sa partie supérieure de l'ouverture courante pour l'introduction du pistolet et à sa partie inférieure avant d'une ouverture permettant l'usage du pistolet pouvant pivoter pour amener la bouche du canon devant ladite ouverture. Un tel pistolet comporte en plus de la sûreté habituelle une sûreté supplémentaire.Document US-A-2,893,615 discloses a pistol sheath consisting of a case provided at its upper part with the current opening for the introduction of the pistol and at its lower part before an opening allowing the use of the pistol which can pivot to bring the muzzle of the barrel in front of said opening. Such a pistol comprises in addition to the usual safety an additional safety.
On connaît encore par le document US-A-4.035.902 une gaine pour arme, qui est montée sur une armature fléxible destinée à maintenir et pincer l'arme et qui présente une ouverture frontale.Also known from document US-A-4,035,902 is a sheath for a weapon, which is mounted on a flexible frame intended to hold and pinch the weapon and which has a front opening.
Une gaine de pistolet suivant l'invention est constituée d'un manchon ou étui, qui est muni à sa partie supérieure de l'ouverture courante pour l'introduction du pistolet, qui présente une partie avant ouverte permettant le dégainement du pistolet vers l'avant et qui est cousu sur une armature flexible destinée à pincer et maintenir le pistolet. Cette gaine est pourvue de moyens d'enlèvement de la sureté automatiquement lors du dégainement vers l'avant, lesdits moyens d'enlèvement consistant en une languette flexible faisant partie de l'armature et sur laquelle est fixée un blochet à hauteur de la sûreté du pistolet dans le chemin de celle-ci lors du dégainement du pistolet vers l'avant.A gun sheath according to the invention consists of a sleeve or holster, which is provided at its upper part with the current opening for the introduction of the gun, which has an open front part allowing the draw of the gun towards the front and which is sewn on a flexible frame intended to pinch and hold the gun. This sheath is provided with means for removing the safety automatically during the forward drawing, said removal means consisting of a flexible tongue forming part of the frame and on which a block is fixed up to the safety of the pistol in the path of the latter when drawing the pistol forward.
L'invention est décrite maintenant avec plus de détails sur la base du dessin annexé montrant, à titre d'exemple uniquement, en :
- Figure 1 une vue en perspective d'une gaine suivant l'invention munie d'un pistolet, et
- Figure 2 une vue de détail par-dessus de la gaine suivant la figure 1.
- FIG. 1 a perspective view of a sheath according to the invention provided with a gun, and
- Figure 2 a detail view over the sheath according to Figure 1.
Comme on le voit aux dessins en figures 1 et 2, une gaine pour pistolet suivant l'invention est constituée d'un manchon ou étui 1 en cuir ou analogue muni à la partie supérieure de l'ouverture courante 10 pour l'introduction d'un pistolet 11 et présentant une partie avant 4 ouverte permettant le dégainement du pistolet par l'avant.As seen in the drawings in Figures 1 and 2, a pistol sheath according to the invention consists of a sleeve or
L'étui 1 est cousu sur une armature flexible 3 également ouverte vers l'avant et destinée à pincer le pistolet pour le maintenir dans son logement.The
Cette armature 3 est pourvue d'une languette flexible 12, sur laquelle est monté un blochet 13 situé à hauteur de la sûreté 14 du pistolet 11 et dans le chemin de cette sûreté lors de la sortie du pistolet par l'avant, mais qui n'agit pas sur la sûreté lorsque l'on utilise la gaine suivant l'invention comme une gaine courante.This frame 3 is provided with a
Pour maintenir encore le pistolet 11 au repos dans son étui 1 il peut être prévu de munir l'ouverture avant d'une patte transversale 15 conformée de manière à se rabattre automatiquement lors du dégainement du pistolet vers l'avant.To further maintain the
Au dessin cette patte 15 a été représentée avec une pression de maintien latéral 16 mais il sera plus avantageux de la réaliser en deux pièces réunies entre elles à l'endroit de l'ouverture par exemple par un bouton-pression, les deux pièces étant désolidarisées entre elles automatiquement par le dégainement du pistolet par l'avant.In the drawing, this
Une gaine suivant l'invention permet donc aux forces de l'ordre, qui auraient connaissance d'un danger imminent, d'y faire face dans les meilleurs délais possibles. En effet, la balle étant engagée dans le canon du pistolet et la sûreté étant mise réglementairement, le tireur n'aura ni l'inconvénient ni le stress de devoir enlever la sûreté, qui, ici se fait automatiquement lors de la sortie du pistolet, et ne risquera pas de commettre une fausse manoeuvre, qui pourrait lui coûter la vie.A sheath according to the invention therefore allows the police, who are aware of an imminent danger, to deal with it as soon as possible. Indeed, the bullet being engaged in the barrel of the pistol and the safety being put by regulation, the shooter will have neither the inconvenience nor the stress of having to remove the safety, which, here is done automatically during the exit of the gun and will not risk committing a false move, which could cost him his life.
D'autre part, l'enlèvement du pistolet de la gaine, se faisant par l'avant et donc dans la direction immédiate du danger, est de ce fait même plus rapide.On the other hand, the removal of the gun from the sheath, being done from the front and therefore in the immediate direction of the danger, is therefore even faster.
Une gaine suivant l'invention annule le désavantage du pistolet par rapport au révolver, elle permet un tir plus direct et donc plus rapide que n'importe quelle gaine courante. De plus elle peut s'employer comme une gaine normale.A sheath according to the invention cancels the disadvantage of the pistol compared to the revolver, it allows a more direct and therefore faster shooting than any current sheath. In addition it can be used as a normal sheath.
